FORM for INSERT only - how to call such from a normal webpage?

[Wolfgang Orth]

Hello all,

I have a form that gets called from a normal webpage using a simple URL, its not called from a NetWebBROWSE.

The only intended action is INSERT.

How / Where do I tell this form that its task is to insert?

I suppose I do it like this:

 p_web.SetSessionValue('MYFORM_CurrentAction',InsertRecord)

but if so, in what embed?

Thanks
Wolfgang

Hi Wolfgang,

The easiest is to form the URL correctly. See FAQ #4 for how to do this.

Alternativly you can add code to the .InitForm method. The idea here would be to use p_Web.SetValue to "set" the parameters missing from the URL. It'd work, but in this case only because the form is _always_ called in Insert mode.

Cheers

Indeed! I have had thought of this as its the way in PHP also, but I could not recall how to do in Nettalk, all samples I found worked without any parameter in the URL - finally I thought my memory was wrong.

And because its a normal, static, handwritten page I added <!-- NetWebServer --> at the top and voila...!

Once again I bow down

Thank you for sharing your time on a Sunday.
